`
`The assigned trademark examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application filed on June 19, 2006, and has determined the following:(cid:160)(cid:160)
`Potential Bar To Registration – Likelihood of Confusion: Prior Pending Application – Class 32 Only
`This potential refusal applies only to International Class 32. Information is enclosed concerning pending Application Serial No. 78806733.(cid:160)
`Although the Office records have been searched and no similar registered mark has been found that would bar registration under Trademark Act
`Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d), there may be a likelihood of confusion under Section 2(d) of the Act between applicant’s mark and the mark
`in the above noted application.(cid:160) The filing date of the referenced application precedes applicant’s filing date. (cid:160) If the earlier‑filed application
`registers, registration may be refused under Section 2(d).(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.83.(cid:160) Therefore, upon entry of a response to the Office action, action on
`this case may be suspended pending final disposition of the earlier-filed application.
`
`(cid:160) C
`
`larification of Identification of Goods Required – International Class 28 Only
`This requirement applies to International Class 28 only. The identification of goods is unacceptable as indefinite. The wording “stationary
`bicycles for spinning,” “pads,” “karate targets,” “Thai pads” in the identification of goods needs clarification because it is vague and
`ambiguous and does not clearly identify the nature of the goods provided.(cid:160) Applicant must amend the identification of goods by deleting the
`wording “SPINNING” and substituting the common commercial or generic name for the goods.(cid:160) The wording “SPINNING” in the
`identification of goods is a registered mark.(cid:160) See enclosed copy of U.S. Registration No(s). 1780650, 1808045, 2003922 and others.(cid:160) Registered
`marks are not to be used in the application to describe applicant's goods.(cid:160) TMEP §1402.09. The applicant must identify with clarity and
`specificity the exact nature of the goods provided. Applicant may adopt the following identification of goods, if accurate. TMEP §1402.01.
`
`(cid:160) I
`
`nternational Class 28
`Exercise and fitness equipment and accessories, namely, ankle and wrist weights; exercise bars; exercise benches; exercise doorway gym bars;
`rowing machines; stair-stepping machines; stationary cycles; abdominal boards; chest expanders; chest pulls; exercise platforms; trampolines;
`treadmills; weight cuffs; weights; manually-operated exercise equipment; personal exercise mats; stress relief balls for hand exercise; bar bells
`
`(cid:160)
`

`
`for athletic use; weight lifting belts; weight lifting benches and bench accessories; weight lifting gloves; elliptical machines; jump ropes; fixed-
`gear stationary bikes; protective pads for cycling; stationary bicycles for indoor cycling; group exercise platforms; and hiking machines; martial
`arts equipment, namely, bag gloves, kicking shields, shin guards, head guards, female chest protectors, punch mitts, groin cups, pads, namely
`________[Applicant(cid:160) must specify the nature and/or function of the pads, e.g., kick pads, target pads, shin pads, etc.], karate target pads,
`body shields, Thai pads, namely ________[Applicant(cid:160) must specify the nature and/or function of the pads, e.g., kick pads, target pads, shin
`pads, etc.],(cid:160) sparring vests, ankle and hand wraps, focus mitts, punching bags, heavy bags, jump ropes, mouth guards, free standing bags, knee
`pads, and elbow pads, in International Class 28.

`Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual. A searchable version of the Identification of Goods and Services Manual is available
`online at our website. The address is: http://tess2.uspto.gov/netahtml/tidm.html.
`
`(cid:160)P
`
`lease note that, while the identification of goods may be amended to clarify or limit the goods, adding to the goods or broadening the scope of
`the goods is not permitted.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.(cid:160) Therefore, applicant may not amend the identification to include goods that are
`not within the scope of the goods set forth in the present identification.
`
`Combined or Multi-Class Applications
`
`If applicant prosecutes this application as a combined, or multiple-class application, then applicant must comply with each of the following for
`those goods and/or services based on an intent to use the mark in commerce under Trademark Act Section 1(b):
`
`(1)(cid:160)(cid:160) Applicant must list the goods and/or services by international class with the classes listed in ascending numerical order.(cid:160) TMEP §
`1403.01; and
`
`(2)(cid:160)(cid:160) Applicant must submit a filing fee for each international class of goods and/or services not covered by the fee already paid.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R.
`§2.86(a)(2); TMEP §§810.01 and 1403.01.
`
`(cid:160)F
